What is "Copy direct link"?
With the Copy direct link command, you insert a direct link to a file, folder, or data room from DRACOON for other DRACOON users in a channel conversation or chat message in Teams. Clicking the link opens the linked element in the DRACOON Web App.
Only users who have access rights to the linked data room in DRACOON (who have been added to the room by a room administrator of the data room) can use the link.
With the Copy direct link command you can, for example, draw the attention of other users of the data room to certain files or folders in the data room and point to them.

Who can link an item from DRACOON, and who can use the link?
You need the Read files and folders permission in the relevant data room to be able to insert a link to this data room or to files and folders in the data room in Teams.
Likewise, users (recipients) of the link need the Read files and folders permission in the relevant data room to be able to use the link and open the linked item in the DRACOON Web App.
